Native Land

DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK

“Native Land” is the expression of origin and history, an A/W 2014/15 unisex prêt-à-porter line. It’s composed of several individual elements which can be swapped with each other, which stimulates greatly new combinations.I believe In diversity.

INSPIRATION

“Native Land” offers garments inspired in different typical costumes with cozy, voluminous silhouettes similar to nomad tunics. Creative rithms that meet in the game with the opposites and in the regularity of contrasts between light and dark. The opaque color palette is inspired in the photographic art.

MATERIALS USED

“Native Land” was created in the context of material sustainability and recycled materials. It was important to create a balanced and harmonic mix of natural products ( such as 1st class cotton and wools) and synthetic materials, to oppose the natural to the artificial.
